Abstract
1420628 Programme distribution systems COMMUNICATIONS PATENTS Ltd 28 Sept 1973 [11 Oct 1972] 46966/72 Heading H4R A wired distribution system includes three or more groups of programmes of which two or some respectively can be denied to subscribers. Two groups of subscribers may thereby have exclusive access to respective "conference" facilities. In the TV distribution exchange shown, marking levels of - 2, 0 and - 4 volts from marker 1 are combined with audio information 3a, 3b, 3c going out over channels A, B, C to programme selectors (not shown) remotely controlled, e.g. via dial pulses, by the subscribers. The levels 0 and - 4 volts relate to denied programmes. Pulses of 1 min. separation according to programme charge are derived 20, 21 from a pulse generator 15 and applied via selectors 23 to the A, B, C channels. The marking level is applied via the subscriber selectors to respective denial control units 4 (detailed Fig. 2, not shown) for comparison with the denial status set by a plugboard or by switches 16, 17 in a switch unit 10 for each subscriber If permitted access to the selected programme, the charge pulses fed to the subscriber and back over line 8 are registered in corresponding counters 27 whenever they coincide with a 1 sec. pulse from the generator 15 which also provides gated power over unit 14 and lines 12 to the denial units 4. If the subscriber is denied access, a relay (RLA) mutes the audio information and sets the subscriber's selector to a datum position. The subscriber equipment may be as in Specification 1,306,366. Privileged subscribers have a key-actuated control to permit selection of programmes denied to other subscribers. A meter in the subscriber's equipment may be set by insertion of coins appropriate to the programme charge rate and the credit progressively reduced by the charge pulses, eventually disabling programme reception when credit is exhausted. Alternatively debit charge meters may be located in the exchange.
